“Our past may explain why we're suffering but we must not use it as an excuse to stay in bondage.” ~ Joyce Meyer
You must understand how important your life is as you grow every
day. Moving from day to day with no sense of purpose and direction will simply
be you trying to find out what life have in stock for you rather than seizing
every moment and turning them into what you want them to be.
As I said in a previous post,
your destiny is not what someone has to you on the day you were born. Your
destiny is not the pre-programmed life you think you are living or that you
will just begin to live it somehow every day.
Your destiny is the
sum total of the decisions, big or small, you make in your life in every
second.
There is every reason to understand that when trying to shape
your future. Some people just go about life care free believing that one day
their life will just begin to follow the pre-program life the was put into them
before they came too planet earth. And they just keep waiting and waiting, but
it never happens. They do everything in life with this mindset, and to them,
they should feel satisfied and content because they are following their life.
When things begin to fall apart, they think to themselves and say, “I don’t think
this is what my life should be like.” And move to try another way of living. It doesn’t bring happiness.
Learning from other
people’s experience is far better than experiencing it of yourself, because
experience is never hey best teacher.
Learning from wisdom
is better than learning from experience, because sometimes, you may never get
another chance to put to practice what you have learned from the previous
experience. Learning from experience makes very little room for a better
living, because if you have to tell yourself you have to experience everything
there is about building a successful life or relationship, you will realize that
you will long be old before you get to the kind of life you want to live. Learn
for wisdom.
Don’t give the
control of your life to others, letting them make decisions for you and letting
them control your emotions.
You needn’t dwell so long in your comfort zone if you want
to reach the stars in life. Staying in your comfort zone makes you a puppet and
every other person in your life is the puppeteer. You cannot and must not give
the wheel of your life to people to drive for you. No matter how bad you think
you are in making decision or how bad you feel that if your life where in your
control you wouldn’t make any meaning out of it, I would say it is better to be
in control rather than watch others do it for you.
The blame game is a
good way of giving excuses, you have to stop blaming others for your past
limitations and failures.
Sometimes in our lives, blaming others for our failures is
just a good way of getting away with the feeling of guilt and fear. I use to do
it myself at some point in my life. Every time something went wrong in my life,
I would actually look for others to blame for my failures. However, that was no
way of taking responsibilities of your life. You must take responsibility of
your life if you want to shape your future and live the life you have always so
desired.
Do not always wait
for opportunities to come to you; you must create your own doors where there was
none.
Taking responsibility for your life one thing. You can do
that yet you still find yourself waiting for a way out of that life. You may
still be waiting for someone to come along to take your hand and lead you to
the place you should be. You don’t need this. Champions don’t wait for
opportunities, they create opportunities for themselves on daily basis. The see
the door others can’t see in every situation. Create your own opportunities;
make your own world. Bring in the people you want in your life, don’t wait for
them to come to you.
